Snapmaker 2.0 Offers Filament Runout Recovery

Snapmaker has launched the Snapmaker 2.0, a 3-in-1 fabrication machine that is capable of 3D printing, laser engraving, cutting and CNC carving. The machine is said to handle a wide variety of 3D printing materials and is offered in three models of different sizes - the A150, A250 and A350. Built with aerospace-grade aluminum alloys, the Snapmaker 2.0 features multiple updates.

Users can select and preview 3D models directly on the 5-inch touchscreen, equipped with Android OS with intuitive controls. The machine’s 3-in-1 software comes pre-loaded with features such as multiple language support and multiple model support. The machine also offers power-loss recovery. The machine is said to have a flexible platform for easily removing the print; an upgraded efficient cooling system; high-precision parts; auto-leveling and filament runout recovery for large print projects with studier linear modules that ensure a 0.02 mm repeatability.

Laser highlights include a built-in camera for previewing the design; the ability to recognize and transform drawings into vector images for engraving or cutting; faster engraving without sacrificing quality; an aluminum grid table to prevent damage to the bed.

CNC highlights include a fully upgraded from the Snapmaker Original, featuring the standard ER11 Collet to guarantee a better concentricity for faster CNC carving speed; an MDF wasteboard to protect the bed from damage and provide a smooth surface for precise carving.

The newly designed controller is said to drive 14 different modules at once and support future add-ons.
